Bullying

I want you to meet Heather Quisel. Around this time last year her husband of 18 years went hunting…. and never came home. He had an electrical misfiring in his heart and passed away very quickly after he sat down on a rock in the mountains. Leaving Heather as a young, 40-year old widow with three children. We dig deep into so many very raw and vulnerable topics regarding grief, mindset, and building the life of your dreams. I hope you love it and her!

Why We Don't Try New Things

Have you ever felt paralyzed before when negative Imposter Syndrome or “I’m-Not-Enough-itis” thoughts start to creep into your head?

I am OBSESSED with the idea that... Just because you failed, doesn't mean you're a failure. Failing is an act, a failure is your identity and identity is malleable. You can put steps in place to change things about yourself that may have defined you in the past. We've all screwed up, failed a class, messed up a promotion, felt like we did a bad job as parents... So today, I have a live presentation from my 30 Day Challenge about how we can change out failures moving forward.

I brought on my personal counselor, Rick Boyes! My life has changed so positively because of the work we have done together. I urge anyone in need of a counselor to listen to this podcast and seek therapy today. Sometimes we get stuck and it's OKAY to need help conquering our darknesses. We cover:  - Emotional survival skills - Change and how to get there - EMDR and what it's used for - Relationships - Suggestions on what YOU can look for in a counselor if you don't know where to start

I loved recording this podcast so much. We talked for so long, we had to cut this into two parts. If you haven't listened to part one already, go check it out before you listen to part two so you can get these amazing people's back story.  Today we go into: - How to accept yourself and own your story - How to handle hate from other people and not let it define you - Jealousy in a marriage - Ex-spouses that are still a part of your life

Jessica was first married to Steve, who then came out as gay. They worked hard to stay together and had a beautiful baby girl. Then later, Steve had an affair, which led to a divorce. Then Jessica met Matt, and they all three share an amazing story of how they've coparented. No matter what situation you're in, you can walk away with something from this podcast today. They leave nothing off the table and really reinforce the saying, "once you own your story, you can take the power away from it."

Today, this whole podcast is about negative and unproductive thoughts! So many times we go down the rabbit hole of believing things our mind is telling us when we feel scared, insecure or like we are failing. I have done this so many times, so I came up with a system that I always use to replace those thoughts with a “how?” question. I give you the step-by-step system I shared in my 21 day challenge, on how to keep going down that same rabbit hole and instead.

So many of you guys reach out with questions about the aftermath of divorce, I decided to bring on two of my friends, Angie and Marie, to dig deep and talk about the "grieving" process of a divorce. They have an awesome community of women that they call "The Unwed's" where they share advice and stories... post divorce. We cover: - The first year post divorce - Dating - Prenuptials - The broken feeling you have afterwards and how to work through that - Having kids during and after

Today, I brought on someone I have become really good friends with! Ryan has an amazing business where he helps people achieve financial freedom. He uses vulnerability and raw stories to remove that shame around money. We cover: - How to teach your kids the value of money - How to remove the shame around money - How his son needed heart surgery around the same time Ryan found out he lost 80% of his savings ... and so much more!

This podcast is a little different today… We pulled the audio from a live presentation I did, talking about vulnerability. As Brene Brown says, “vulnerability is our unsuspecting super power,” and it has been a KEY part of both my personal and business life. A lot of people tell me that vulnerability is like standing naked in front of the whole school, and it can be. It will be, but it is SO important to use your shame and times that make you feel vulnerable to make connections and tell your story.
